“it doesn't matter what you have JUST bought. It matters if you are still playing the same thing five, ten years from now.”

And that is what manufacturers are saying.
Ketron is probably like Yamaha in that they want you to buy a now keyboard every 2-3 years. So whether you can get styles for the keyboard 2-3 years later is not the manufacturer’s concern. In fact, they want you to not have styles for your 2-3 year old keyboard so that you can buy the next hardware board with new styles.


Yamaha and Ketron do not want persons to do like what some owners of the Roland G70 and Gem Genesys do. They don’t want customers to use the keyboard to its full potential and not buy another keyboard until 10 years later. Why? It doesn’t allow them to get a lot of sales on a now keyboard and it forces them to put resources on a 2-3 year old keyboard rather than put resources on their new keyboard.
And if all of this sounds like hogwash, just ask yourself why is Roland not making TOTL arrangers and why Gem is no longer in business.

You had better hope Ketron is following Yamaha’s business practices. Just look for the past 6 years at lease Ketron’s attentions has been on the Augya.
